TORONTO, March 3, 2022 /CNW/ - TD Bank Group ("TD" or the "Bank") today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended January 31, 2022. Reported earnings were $3.7 billion, up 14% compared with the first quarter last year, and adjusted earnings were $3.8 billion, up 13%.
"TD started the year strong, delivering revenue growth across all our business segments as customer activity gained additional momentum," said Bharat Masrani, Group President and CEO, TD Bank Group. "With a focus on growth, we continue to make investments in technology and new capabilities, positioning us well to meet our customers' and clients' evolving needs."
"I am also pleased to have announced our deal with First Horizon earlier this week. A bold acceleration of our U.S. strategy to acquire a premier regional bank, with a strong presence in highly attractive markets across the U.S. Southeast – a terrific strategic fit for TD," added Masrani.
Canadian Retail saw continued strength in client activity, volumes and revenue
Canadian Retail net income was $2,254 million, an increase of 11% compared with the first quarter last year. The increase in earnings reflects record revenue and lower provisions for credit losses (PCL), partially offset by higher non-interest expenses. Revenue increased 6%, reflecting strong non-interest income growth across all lines of business and momentum in loan and deposit volumes. Expenses increased 8%, reflecting investments to support business growth, and volume driven expenses including higher variable compensation. PCL decreased by $109 million from the first quarter last year, reflecting lower impaired PCL and a higher recovery in performing PCL.
Canadian Retail started the year with good momentum, delivering record revenue performance in the Personal and Commercial Bank, supported by increased customer activity. In Wealth, net asset growth and mutual fund sales balanced the impact of trading volume normalization and delivered revenue growth for the business. Forward-focused innovations continued to support customers in building financial confidence, including expanding the New to Canada bundle to include 12 months of free international transfers via the TD Global Transfers platform and the launch of TD Easy TradeTM, a new mobile trading app from TD Direct Investing, with no minimum balance or monthly fees and 50 free stock trades per client, per year.
Strong recovery continued across U.S. Retail
U.S. Retail net income was $1,272 million (US$1,006 million), an increase of 27% (30% in U.S. dollars) compared with the first quarter last year. The Bank's investment in The Charles Schwab Corporation (Schwab) contributed $252 million (US$200 million) in earnings, an increase of 21% (24% in U.S. Dollars) compared with the first quarter last year.
The U.S. Retail Bank, which excludes the Bank's investment in Schwab, reported net income of $1,020 million (US$806 million), an increase of 29% (31% in U.S. dollars) from the first quarter last year, primarily reflecting higher revenue and lower PCL. Revenue increased 4% (6% in U.S. dollars), reflecting higher deposit volumes and margins, increased earnings on the investment portfolio and higher fee income, partially offset by lower loan margins. PCL was $21 million (US$17 million), lower by $114 million (US$86 million) from the same quarter last year, reflecting lower impaired and performing PCL. Expenses decreased 5% (4% in U.S. dollars), reflecting store optimization costs incurred in the prior year, which more than offset investments made in the business in the current quarter. The U.S. Retail Bank continued to provide ongoing support to help small business customers process loan forgiveness through the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), while assisting mortgage, credit card and middle-market customers with their credit needs.
The U.S. Retail Bank continued to invest in deepening customer experiences, building stronger communities and supporting colleagues. Enhancements to the TD Mobile app now provide debit card customers with the ability to easily request a digitally issued replacement once a card is reported lost, stolen or damaged. The Double UpSM Credit Card, added to the TD credit card suite last spring, became the primary driver of new Bankcard accounts, having added 98,000 accounts by quarter end. The Essential Banking deposit account, designed to provide better banking access to underserved communities, has resulted in 44,000 accounts since its official launch last August, helping to meet the needs of more customers, in more communities. TD Bank, America's Most Convenient Bank® opened its New York City flagship store, One Vanderbilt, serving as the largest store in TD's U.S. footprint, providing customers greater convenience and accessibility.
Strong Wholesale Banking performance in Q1
Wholesale Banking reported net income of $434 million this quarter, a decrease of 1% compared to the first quarter last year, reflecting higher revenue, lower PCL and higher non-interest expenses. PCL for the quarter was a recovery of $5 million, compared to a $20 million provision in the first quarter last year, reflecting lower levels of both performing and impaired PCL.
Wholesale Banking delivered a strong performance while investing for future growth. During the first quarter, TD Securities continued to demonstrate its advisory and financing capabilities in sustainable finance by helping to structure and underwrite more than $12.5 billion of Green, Social and Sustainability-Linked Bonds, $24 billion of Sustainability-Linked Loans and delivering on notable advisory mandates.
Capital
TD's Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio was 15.2%1.
Conclusion
"Overall, this was a strong quarter for the Bank and as we look ahead, we remain focused on the opportunities to grow our business and deepen relationships with our customers," added Masrani. "I want to thank our 90,000 colleagues around the world who continue to deliver on our purpose to enrich the lives of our customers, colleagues and communities each and every day."

To arrive at adjusted results, the Bank adjusts for "items of note", from reported results. Refer to the "How We Performed" section of this document for further explanation, a list of the items of note, and a reconciliation of adjusted to reported results.

PENDING ACQUISITION
Acquisition of First Horizon Corporation
On February 28, 2022, the Bank and First Horizon Corporation ("First Horizon") announced a definitive agreement for the Bank to acquire First Horizon in an all-cash transaction valued at US$13.4 billion, or US$25.00 for each common share of First Horizon. In connection with this transaction, the Bank has invested US$494 million in non-voting First Horizon preferred stock (convertible in certain circumstances into up to 4.9% of First Horizon's common stock). The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of fiscal 2023, and is subject to customary closing conditions, including approvals from First Horizon's shareholders and U.S. and Canadian regulatory authorities. The results of the acquired business will be consolidated by the Bank from the closing date and reported in the U.S. Retail segment.
If the transaction does not close prior to November 27, 2022, First Horizon shareholders will receive, at closing, an additional US$0.65 per share on an annualized basis for the period from November 27, 2022 through the day immediately prior to the closing. Either party will have the right to terminate the agreement if the transaction has not closed by February 27, 2023 (the "outside date"), subject to the right of either party (under certain conditions) to extend the outside date to May 27, 2023.
Concurrent with the announcement, the automatic share purchase plan established under the Bank's NCIB automatically terminated pursuant to its terms. The NCIB remains in effect on the same terms and subject to the same restrictions as previously disclosed.
HOW WE PERFORMED
HOW THE BANK REPORTS
The Bank prepares its Interim Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with IFRS and refers to results prepared in accordance with IFRS as "reported" results.
Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures
In addition to reported results, the Bank also presents certain financial measures, including non-GAAP financial measures that are historical, non-GAAP ratios, supplementary financial measures and capital management measures, to assess its results. Non-GAAP financial measures, such as "adjusted" results, are utilized to assess the Bank's businesses and to measure the Bank's overall performance. To arrive at adjusted results, the Bank adjusts for "items of note", from reported results. Items of note are items which management does not believe are indicative of underlying business performance and are disclosed in Table 3. Non-GAAP ratios include a non-GAAP financial measure as one or more of its components. Examples of non-GAAP ratios include adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS), adjusted dividend payout ratio, adjusted efficiency ratio, and adjusted effective income tax rate. The Bank believes that non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios provide the reader with a better understanding of how management views the Bank's performance. Non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios used in this document are not defined terms under IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar terms used by other issuers. Supplementary financial measures depict the Bank's financial performance and position, and capital management measures depict the Bank's capital position, and both are explained in this document where they first appear.
U.S. Strategic Cards
The Bank's U.S. strategic cards portfolio is comprised of agreements with certain U.S. retailers pursuant to which TD is the U.S. issuer of private label and co-branded consumer credit cards to their U.S. customers. Under the terms of the individual agreements, the Bank and the retailers share in the profits generated by the relevant portfolios after credit losses. Under IFRS, TD is required to present the gross amount of revenue and PCL related to these portfolios in the Bank's Interim Consolidated Statement of Income. At the segment level, the retailer program partners' share of revenues and credit losses is presented in the Corporate segment, with an offsetting amount (representing the partners' net share) recorded in Non-interest expenses, resulting in no impact to Corporate's reported Net income (loss). The Net income (loss) included in the U.S. Retail segment includes only the portion of revenue and credit losses attributable to TD under the agreements.
Investment in The Charles Schwab Corporation
On October 6, 2020, the Bank acquired an approximately 13.5% stake in Schwab following the completion of Schwab's acquisition of TD Ameritrade ("Schwab transaction"). For further details, refer to Note 7 of the first quarter of 2022 Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. The Bank accounts for its investment in Schwab using the equity method and reports its after-tax share of Schwab's earnings with a one-month lag. The U.S. Retail segment reflects the Bank's share of net income from its investment in Schwab. The Corporate segment net income (loss) includes amounts for amortization of acquired intangibles and the acquisition and integration charges related to the Schwab transaction.

The consolidated Bank ROE is calculated as reported net income available to common shareholders as a percentage of average common equity. The consolidated Bank adjusted ROE is calculated as adjusted net income available to common shareholders as a percentage of average common equity. Adjusted ROE is a non-GAAP financial ratio and can be utilized in assessing the Bank's use of equity.
ROE for the business segments is calculated as the segment net income attributable to common shareholders as a percentage of average allocated capital. The Bank's methodology for allocating capital to its business segments is largely aligned with the common equity capital requirements under Basel III. Capital allocated to the business segments increased to 10.5% Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) Capital in the first quarter of 2022, compared with 9% in fiscal 2021.

Return on Tangible Common Equity
Tangible common equity (TCE) is calculated as common shareholders' equity less goodwill, imputed goodwill and intangibles on the investments in Schwab and other acquired intangible assets, net of related deferred tax liabilities. ROTCE is calculated as reported net income available to common shareholders after adjusting for the after–tax amortization of acquired intangibles, which are treated as an item of note, as a percentage of average TCE. Adjusted ROTCE is calculated using reported net income available to common shareholders, adjusted for all items of note, as a percentage of average TCE. TCE, ROTCE, and adjusted ROTCE can be utilized in assessing the Bank's use of equity. TCE is a non-GAAP financial measure, and ROTCE and adjusted ROTCE are non-GAAP ratios.

HOW OUR BUSINESSES PERFORMED
For management reporting purposes, the Bank reports its results under three key business segments: Canadian Retail, which includes the results of the personal and commercial banking, wealth, and insurance businesses; U.S. Retail, which includes the results of the personal and business banking operations, wealth management services, and the Bank's investment in Schwab; and Wholesale Banking. The Bank's other activities are grouped into the Corporate segment.
Results of each business segment reflect revenue, expenses, assets, and liabilities generated by the businesses in that segment. Where applicable, the Bank measures and evaluates the performance of each segment based on adjusted results and ROE, and for those segments, the Bank indicates that the measure is adjusted. For further details, refer to the "How We Performed" section of this document, the "Business Focus" section in the Bank's 2021 MD&A, and Note 29 of the Bank's Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended October 31, 2021.
PCL related to performing (Stage 1 and Stage 2) and impaired (Stage 3) financial assets, loan commitments, and financial guarantees is recorded within the respective segment.
Net interest income within Wholesale Banking is calculated on a taxable equivalent basis (TEB), which means that the value of non-taxable or tax-exempt income, including certain dividends, is adjusted to its equivalent before-tax value. Using TEB allows the Bank to measure income from all securities and loans consistently and makes for a more meaningful comparison of net interest income with similar institutions. The TEB increase to net interest income and provision for income taxes reflected in Wholesale Banking's results are reversed in the Corporate segment. The TEB adjustment for the quarter was $38 million, compared with $36 million in the prior quarter and $42 million in the first quarter last year.
Share of net income from investment in Schwab is reported in the U.S. Retail segment. Amounts for amortization of acquired intangibles and the acquisition and integration charges related to the Schwab transaction are recorded in the Corporate segment.
